Who do you think is the greatest Boxer in History? recently, I believe it's Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao... for years, sportsmen type-casted the great Mohammad Ali as the best.. but I guess now, time have changed in Manny's favor... He is the first Asian boxer to achieve a world title in 3 weight divisions, and he is the only boxer who hold 7 world title belts.. the best thing is that he's at his prime and willing to achieve more... Manny Pacquiao is a great success story.. people loves the way he fights.. In the Philippines, when Manny fights, the whole country stops to watch and rejoices for days in his victory... He has served as an inspiration to the nation as we dubbed him as the "Pabansang Kamao (National Fist)" and "The People's Champ".. no national hero in our country has ever affected the lives of Filipino worldwide this much... Congratulations Manny!

Tyson in his prime VS Ali in his prime, I would bet Tyson. Mike Tyson is Muhammed Ali with a wild animal inside him! Although if I had to choose the best, i'd probably choose my name-sake, Rocky Marciano.
The man was his own brick sh!thouse! Unbreakable.

I think that Manny Pacquiao probably the greatest boxer in the history of boxing. He achieve a feat that no one has never achieved off. When you say the name Pacquiao, it literally means that it is boxing. Pacquiao is a true sport and and entertainer as well. Boxing could not be able to withstand the emergence of MMA without Pacquiao.
